Purpose and goal

The goal of the project was to develop a marine stove and heater based on Zemission´s catalytic burner with high efficiency and low emissions. This has been achieved by the development of a common burner platform adapted for cost-effective production. Subsequently, a complete stove has been completed and field tested in boat with good results. A compact heat exchanger design based on a cost-effective extruded aluminium structure has also been developed and adapted for production and together with the burner platform it forms an efficient air heater.

Expected results and effects

A stove based on catalytic combustion for liquid fuels has been developed and adapted to the marine and RV* market and is now ready for launch. *(Recreational Vehicles)

Planned approach and implementation

The project has been divided into seven work packages. The work packages together with milestones have formed the basis for planning and follow-up during the project. Physical meetings between the parties have taken place 1-2 times per six months and in between, Skype meetings have been held on a monthly basis and sometimes also weekly on the technical development.
